Blogging the chemo: oowooo…

Category: Health

My hairy monster side continues. The spots are still there, but many of them are covered by a thin layer of very black hair. Its most amusing I have to say as I am growing hair where I never have before; futhermore I am growing hair where I didn’t think hair every grew. I know we grow to look like our dogs but this is getting rather silly. Can’t wait to hear what the doc has to say about it on Monday.

On the non-hairy side of things I am feeling rather better post-chemo day. Wednesday, whether the heavy or light day, are still a bit of a hit & miss affair being able to function. Last two I have come hope from chemo and promptly passed out. Granted the heavy day I pass out more or less for 12 hours; but still. Its good to know that I am fairly functioning all but two days during the fortnight cycle. It allows us to plan things more accurately.

On Tuesday night we had a rather nice dinner and drinks in London with Dr Lee Rotherham, a primary Conservative candidate for London Mayor and wedding attendee, and he didn’t run away in terror. Course he is in the TA and has probably seen “Dog Soldiers.”
